Read transcript

I'm Faro. Your AI agent for construction.

You run the job. I'll help you keep it moving.

Tell me what you're building, your budget, and when you need to start.

I'll prepare a project draft from your brief.

We'll review the scope, budget, and assumptions together.

Review the draft. You decide what moves forward.

Bring your next job. Let's work through it together in a free GC working session.

AI-generated voice and illustrative construction scene. Recorded Faro draft uses fictional project details. Review required before action.

What it helps with

Built around real GC work.

Estimates, bids, RFIs, field logs, payments, procurement, and closeout all stay tied to the job.

Project Controls

Show the RFIs, submittals, blockers, and decisions that need attention.

  • Daily control brief
  • RFIs, submittals, and schedule blockers
  • Tasks, logs, meetings, and owner updates

Current boundary: Full deadline chasing is still being connected.

"What needs my attention before tomorrow's meeting?"

Preconstruction & Estimating

Turn scope into takeoff, price, margin, and a proposal you can review.

  • Scope review and quantity takeoff
  • Assemblies, unit rates, and margin policy
  • Estimate revisions and proposal preview

Current boundary: Faro flags missing quantities and prices instead of faking precision.

"Turn this takeoff into a client-ready estimate using our margin policy."

Trade Partner & Bid Management

Find coverage, compare bids, and show gaps before you award work.

  • Contractor search and trust signals
  • Job-post and bid drafts
  • Bid review and leveling

Current boundary: Solicitation rounds, awards, and subcontracts still need human control.

"Level these bids and show exclusions, allowances, and missing scope."

Field, Safety & Compliance

Turn site notes into logs, QC checklists, and inspection prep.

  • Daily logs, toolbox talks, and QC checklists
  • Safety-condition review and inspection planning
  • Inspection results and COI records

Current boundary: Faro does not replace the AHJ, safety officer, designer, engineer, or counsel.

"Build today's log and a waterproofing QC checklist from these field notes."

Cost, Contract & Payment Controls

Show where cost, changes, invoices, and payment risk are moving.

  • Budget, job-cost, invoice, and pay-app reads
  • Variance and forecast-at-completion review
  • Change and payment-risk checks

Current boundary: Pay apps, change approvals, purchasing, exports, and money movement stay gated.

"Show current cost, committed cost, forecast, and gross-profit exposure."

Materials & Procurement

Connect quantities, alternates, price checks, and lead-time risk.

  • Material quantities and waste factors
  • Price and catalog searches
  • Alternates, shopping lists, and purchase-order reads

Current boundary: Purchase commitments, vendor follow-up, and long-running tracking are not automatic.

"Check quantities, compare two alternates, and flag the long-lead exposure."

Deal Feasibility

Tie acquisition assumptions to scope, price, and delivery risk.

  • Live address underwriting with source freshness
  • ARV, rehab, return, and maximum-offer analysis
  • Confirmed preliminary GC price request and project handoff

Current boundary: An underwrite is a decision aid, not a guarantee of value, cost, or return.

"Underwrite this address and show where the comp or rehab confidence is weak."

Plain requests

Start with the thing bugging you.

No tool names. No setup script. Ask about the job.

Control the job

  • "What's going to bite me before tomorrow's OAC?"
  • "Which RFIs or submittals are holding the schedule?"
  • "Draft Friday's owner update from the project record."

Protect margin

  • "Where is this estimate thin?"
  • "Does this change hit budget or schedule?"
  • "Level these bids and call out the holes."

Move field work

  • "Build next week's lookahead around blockers."
  • "Turn these crew and weather notes into today's daily log."
  • "What do we need before rough electrical inspection?"
Your call

Faro drafts. You decide.

It can read, compare, and prepare. It cannot send, approve, award, sign, or move money without review.
1

Check

Read the job record and source evidence.

2

Explain

Show the issue, assumption, or risk.

3

Draft

Prepare the brief, checklist, note, or next action.

4

Approve

Let the right person edit and approve it.

Current pilot boundary
Faro does not move money, release escrow, award work, sign contracts, submit pay apps, approve changes, or send messages on its own. Your authorized team remains responsible for legal, design, safety, and code decisions.
Why it matters

Less re-entry. Fewer missed handoffs.

The same job record follows the estimate, buyout, field work, billing, and closeout.
01

Enter the job once

The estimate, bid coverage, schedule, owner update, and pay-app context all point back to one record.

02

Check the math first

Faro checks retainage, totals, alternates, exclusions, lead times, and margin before writing the answer.

03

Keep the authority

Drafts can be prepared fast. Contracts, payments, messages, awards, and approvals wait for you.

Next

Help us finish the loops contractors need most.

Estimating is the most complete today. Next we are tightening field, buyout, billing, and closeout follow-through.
  1. 1Project control: brief, prioritize, draft the follow-up, review, send
  2. 2Client updates: collect progress, flag decisions, review recipients, send
  3. 3Bid and buyout: package scope, compare bids, clarify gaps, record the award
  4. 4Field control: collect notes/photos, write the log, route safety and QC issues
  5. 5Closeout and warranty: punch, finals, waivers, warranties, callbacks
